Just look at the various coloured "Dim Sum" that we saw from the night market stalls that we visited.

I love food and travel. When i saw these photos from my album, it makes me smile from all the happy memories i have from my holiday vacations in Malaysia.

There are just so much to do in Malaysia. Especially Food, shopping and entertainment (Genting Casino). Great fabulous shopping with buying power from the difference in the currencies exchange rate.

Took some street photos and glad that they turned out nice and clear.

I saved the best for last to share. These are called "Durians", Also known as the " King of Fruits". You either love it or hate it. I love it but some of my friends has headache and feel giddy just by smelling it. That will give you an idea or can imagine for those that never had a chance to smell or taste it.

So during this trip i ate a lot of different types of durian. It is not cheap for the good quality and meaty ones. But if you love them, you will be prepared to pay. My family love both the sweet and bitter durian. Best is if the seeds are small and these seeds have lots of fresh. The only thing we had to do is drink lots of salt water from the shells of the durians. It has been believed that in order not suffer from soar throat after eating durian, one has to drink salt water but must be from the shells of the durian. Was told if we just drink the salt water from a cup or glass, it will not help with the soar throat.
Believe it or Not!!!

Thanks for offering to bring me around when i am in KL. At the moment no plans but will keep this offer in mind. Would really want to make a trip for the durian and visit my favourite De Maw Restaurant in Cheras. Hope it is still there. The best deep fried shelled Clayfish. We ordered 2 plates each time we visit it. Missed it and their Lamb in Red Wine. Talking about it makes me craved more...am sure you all have eaten there???
